Wearable sensors can be used in different
sports and occasion. Wearable devices are gaining attention in research
activities. Increasing adoption of different type of wearable devices in
healthcare and fitness is one of the major driver of this market. With the
miniaturization model and falling prices, more number of sensors are expected
to be in use in the forecast period. These sensors are used in many of the
different devices like watch, smart phones, VR headsets, jewelry and many more.
The key factor for the growth of the market is small size, easy of handling and
low cost. Motion sensors are the widely used type of wearable devices. A motion
sensor is a device that can sense physical movement and used in the fitness
activity. The global wearable sensors devices market is majorly driven by
increasing prevalence of diseases like diabetes, obesity and other heart
diseases. Increasing geriatric population across the globe has led to increase
the incidents of heart disease. Additionally, advantages such as continuous
monitoring, increasing government support, and increasing healthcare
expenditure have fuelled the growth of the market during the forecast period.
Race to find the cost-effective alternatives has increases the competition
between manufacturers and is the key challenge for them. High cost of wearable
products and regulatory issues may slow the growth of the market during the
forecast period.

A number of companies are involved in the
manufacturing of the wearable sensors. The companies have adopted the organic
strategy of product launch and acquisition to gain the market. Many companies
are operating in the market, however, the major companies dominated the major
share in the market due to well-developed brand identity. Some major companies
are focusing on development of new and advanced products to gain the market
share. Whereas, some are has used the technique of acquisition and collaboration
to gain the market.

Latest Industry Updates:

Being a competitive market, a number of
different manufacturer are focusing on the product launch, and acquisition for
the market development. Some of the latest development in the market are-

March 2017, Breg, Inc., manufactures and markets sports
medicine products and services for orthopedic patient care. The company also
offers workflow management software for durable medical equipment, prosthetics,
orthotics, and supplies. The company launched Breg Flex the first mobile health
solutuion design to facilitate and improve patients’ at-home recovery following
orthopedic surgery

Oct 2014, Medtronic Inc. announced the U.S. launch of the
SEEQ Mobile Cardiac Telemetry (MCT) System, which is used in the monitoring of
the cardiac diseases. Additionally, in June 2014, the company has completed the
acquisition of Corventis Inc.

March 2017, PAREXEL International Corporation, a leading
global biopharmaceutical services provider, announced the launch of patient
sensor solution to transform clinical trial data collection.

The Americas holds a significant market share
of the global market owing to the presence of huge diabetic & obese
population, and increasing prevalence of cardiovascular diseases. According to
the World Health Organization, in 2015, 9.3% of total America population is
suffering from diabetes. Additionally, during last few years there is a
significant increase in the adoption of the automation which has helped in the
growth of the market. Europe accounts for the second largest market in the
globe due to a high patient population, high healthcare expenditure and string
government support for research & development. Asia Pacific is expecting
the fastest growth for the market owing to the presence of the huge opportunity
for the growth of the market and increasing diabetic population. The Middle
East & Africa holds the least share in the market owing to the presence of
the poor economic conditions Africa. Gulf nations: Saudi Arabia and the UAE

Moore's law

Moore's law

Moore\'s law is the observation that, over the history of computing hardware, the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years. The law is named after Gordon E. Moore, co-founder of Intel Corporation, who described the trend in his 1965 paper. His prediction has proven to be accurate, in part because the law is now used in the semiconductor industry to guide long-term planning and to set targets for research and development. The capabilities of many digital electronic devices are strongly linked to Moore\'s law: quality-adjusted microprocessor prices, memory capacity, sensors and even the number and size of pixels in digital cameras. All of these are improving at roughly exponential rates as well. This exponential improvement has dramatically enhanced the impact of digital electronics in nearly every segment of the world economy. Moore\'s law describes a driving force of technological and social change, productivity and economic growth in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
The period is often quoted as 18 months because of Intel executive David House, who predicted that chip performance would double every 18 months (being a combination of the effect of more transistors and their being faster).
